Yes, you can kick an 18490 with an 18350. You sacrifice vape time with the smaller battery, but it is doable.

Not really as big of a deal that most people make it out to be I always have xtra batts no matter how big or how long they last and how hard is it really for us to pop out a dead batt and put in a freshy:D

has anyone ever tried kicking a real 14500 mini? I don't think its possible... just asking for kicks. XD
I dont think they sell batteries that small, do they?

I ordered 1 AW and two EFest batteries.
I saw on a couple comparison websites that Efest beat out AW at lower voltages.
The Efest batteries hold their 3.7+ current much longer than AW with a low amerage draw apparently.
Found that here I think?: Torchy the Battery Boy: IMR "safe chemistry" batteries
So yeah, the AW will be nice, and the Efest batteries should be fun to try out too.
You can't beat 2 for $10 Efest batteries that supposedly beat AW brand, either. Should be cool.

I can't wait to see how small this 14500 reo really is.
when I bought it, I thought it was a 18350 mod, which is why I didn't want to get a mini 2.0
I didn't want to have to buy new batteries, and the mini 2.0 was already out of my comfort zone.
Then come to find out I still had to buy new batteries for the mini? UGH. lol. O well. I love small mods.
If I like it, I will save up and get a mini 2.0, or a Reo VV!!

There is a VV Woodville in the classifieds for 145 dollars shipped. Buy it before I pop.

Thanks for posting Dan. I hadn't planned on being on computer and was checking on phone before closing shop for night. At $145, including shipping, I just couldn't pass it up. Looks to be in beautiful shape, too. As most of us know, a quick, cheap trip to REO for swicth replacement and it will be as good as new. I'm vaping my Mini Woodvil Jatabo/zebra at this moment with REOmizer. It's one of the few small REOs, in my collection, that the REOmizer fits without adapter or messing with pin. Just got shipping notice for Hornet from Indy vaper. RBA REO bliss!!!!

Rest well, Fine REO Folk.

Hugs, Feisty Alice

{edit} I haven't used my 1st run Jatoba/curly maple in so long I forget how it's weight compares with othr original Woodvils but the Jatabo Mini Woodvil is incredibly light weight.

I've had my kick buried in a Don for so long but I think the Kick needs 18mm diameter space. REO Minis only have room for 14mm diameter. That would be main limiting factor.

figured as much. could put a eGo booster on it, but its a bottom fed mod, lol.
I don't have a kick anyway. just brainstorming. I got my provari and a VVeGo on the way.

DH loves his eGo Spinners (VV) (He really likes the Twist better but they are even more fragile than the Spinners) with Mini ViVi Nova tanks. Main issue is they are fragile compared to REOs but they do work well for him in his over stuffed shirt pockets. In REO he prefers the metal Mini over all others.

The REO Mini is incredibly small!!!! And with the lighter weight 14500 battery it feels almost weightless compared to many mods. I had a Provari and GGTS but I was not comfortable with their weight. I am much more comfortable with the lighter weight, sorely neglected Buzz Pro and Kicked Don. I haven't touched either in a couple of months. I played with BP for a day. Before that it was another couple of months that I didn't use it. REOs will do that to ya.

well I think i'm going to go with the variable voltage Kgo since it goes up to 6volts. :D
besides, I already have my provari for variable voltage at home. The vvKgo will be nice for out, with my Reo.
Mini Reo, 3-4 batteries, a volt battery, and a variable voltage Kgo might just be in my fanny pack :p

I can't freaking wait. Thank you for your responses westamyx, the mini sounds AWESOME.
I love small mods. + I don't mind extra bats. I have a good feeling its going to be 1 of my favorite mods.
